Instructions
1. Measure the width of the wire pants hanger and cut the wool felt and clear vinyl to the width measurement and 28 inches long.
2. Draw a grid on the clear vinyl, using the pen and ruler, to create six rows of six 4-inch squares with a 1/2-inch border on the sides and bottom and a 4-inch border on the top.
3. Pin the vinyl to the wool felt along the grid lines. Sew a straight stitch through all lines with the sewing machine, using the size 16 needle.
4. Place the fabrics on a flat surface like a table, vinyl side facing up. Cut through the top edge of each square 1/4-inch down from the sewing line with the craft knife, using the ruler to guide the knife. Cut through the vinyl only.
